Ms. Stahl’s Classroom Newsletter
Article Title 1
First, choose a short title or theme for your
newsletter — something like "Class News," or
“Back to School.” Then, pick a full title for
your newsletter — for example, "Ms. Stahl’s
Classroom Newsletter." If you’d like, you can
also add a subtitle, volume number, and date
for your newsletter.
Use the body of your newsletter to keep
parents apprised of major assignments and
class events, as well as any school district
news. Provide explanations of how projects
and daily work conform to the state
standards.
You might also want to include the week's
spelling words, test alerts, and any upcoming
events such as field trips or special school
events.
A newsletter also can extend classroom
learning. Give students experience in writing
for an audience by having them write articles
describing class projects. Ask children to help
you choose the colors of your newsletter, pick
out clip art, put together story ideas, write
and edit articles, and distribute the
newsletter.

Keep the tone simple and positive.
Occasionally you might need to remind
